    I would def recommend Tab McCausland..She is fabulous and has decent rates..Most photogs may be booked at this point because fourth of July is such a popular date and that it's soo close! Many vendors (not just photogs) in CFL book up to as early as a 12 to 16 months in advance to their wedding date..GL!

    I was going to recommend Jenn Hopkins but we're using her on that date for our wedding! Way to be date twins! :)

    Sam Dickinson, SMD Wedding Photography.  Very affordable, and I think he's very good.  ;)  www.smdweddings.com

    My wedding photographer was Misty Miotto but she books up pretty solidly in advance, but you can try her! mistymiotto.com. Casie at Rebel Belle Photography, rebelbellephotography.com, did our TTD last August and we loved her work, too, so you can check her availability as well :) Good luck!
    That's Mrs.skWhitneyAmanda to you!

    You should check out my photographer : www.kellyembryweddings.com
    she is based in Atlanta but is photographing our wedding next year in Orlando, She has great rates and is not charging us any travel fees ( i think her mom lives in Orlando). I sent her a message and she said that she doesnt upcharge for the 4th of July (or any holiday) and would offer you the no travel fee deal as well if you contact her soon. Hope this helps out and good luck with your search!!!

    Yeah, I actually find it weird that they are charging more for a holiday.  Certain days are big for vendors and I know *some* charge extra for them (like 10/10/10, 11/11/11, 10/11/12, etc) but holidays actually aren't one of them!  From what I understand holidays are usually slower days.  Very odd and not fair.

    Good luck finding a wonderful photographer.

    Billy Lane Photography. He charges a flat rate of $400. He's from the Lakeland area, and maybe he'll charge a little more to travel but i'm not sure where your venue is. He gives the cd with all the photos and a free engagement session.
